Ashley Williams has welcomed her first child into the world.
The ‘How I Met Your Mother’ star – who has made recurring appearances as Victoria in the US sitcom since 2006 – gave birth to son Gus Williams Dodson, who weighed 8lbs 8oz, on Sunday (19.10.14), and admits he is "calm" at the moment.
She told PEOPLE magazine: "He’s gorgeous and healthy. So far he’s soothable and calm. Knock on wood!"
Ashley and her husband Neal Dodson are said to be delighted after welcoming their first child, and the 35-year-old beauty admitted they decided on the name because everyone loves the moniker Gus.
She added: "His name is Gus. For no other reason than: Who doesn’t love a guy named Gus?
"We felt so safe and so lucky to have had such incredible support."
Ashley and Neal announced in July she was expecting, and the brunette star joked they hadn’t exactly chosen the ideal moment to have a baby.
She quipped: "After years of waiting for the perfect moment to have a child, we decided to go with this moment instead. And we couldn’t be more thrilled."
